Today there was a growing minority of people wishing to change or even eliminate democracy for the failed socialism Marxist infrastructure or regime. This is mainly seen as the left verses those of the right of the political spectrum. In the UK we initially saw this movement 'in the flesh' exposing itself to become more prominent within the referendum of 2016 or just thereafter, whereby the minority were not going to accept the majority results of that referendum. The left decides to cause as much mayhem as was possible and to disrupt or even dislodge democracy off its secure plinth. The majority of people voted to leave the EU, mainly as it was seen heading for a United States of Europe, that seemed ok at first until some researched or investigated what the end plan of this move was. The Majority in the UK saw the political changes from a trade organisation to one of being more of a dictatorship, especially when the EU organisations started to make demands on the 27 member countries to align everything such as, Sovereignty, currency, parliamentary powers, the justice system, the banking system, the armed forces, they even introduced a flag and anthem to name a few. This also led to opening the European borders and free movement at the demand of the EU. The consequences also suggested, with free movement the erosion of identity and culture of a country within the medium to long term. What was this to do with trade?
With open doors to countries, there was an upsurge of so-called-refugees, illegal migrants from Africa, and Eastern countries, these people were mainly looking for opportunity. What was not envisaged was the corruption, organised crime, violence, and the lack of recognition to the existing justice and laws of the lands of those countries that offered to host them - turmoil followed within their wake.
The follow on to this, was the delays by four years, sacking of a British rogue Government by not getting Brexit done, replacing it with a new mandate to get Brexit done, meanwhile taking in large quantities of migrants and illegals and then there was the Corvid Virus from China. Accident or deliberate, China used this opportunity of mayhem to take territory from across the world through trade blackmail, whilst inflicting this virus that transmuted across the world. This caused a retaliation of varied countries, due to China's lack of cooperation in giving advanced warning of the spread of the virus generally any lack of serious concern for anyone, even their own people. China are the instigators and now caused many deaths, instead it seems they were more interested on the stealing of technology, the violation of human right and the attempts to take land causing more deaths on the boarders of India, failures of China. Meantime in the US an arrest of a black man known to have a long history of criminal violence and crime had died during the arrest and in was in custody. Due to the method of arrest and possibly the negative attitudes from the arresting police officers involved this individual died.
During the lockdown of the virus a number wishing to disrupt and split the adhesiveness of society, decided to hijack the BLM for the causes of Black Lives Matter concerning the USA; what was now labelled as a murder by those police officers involved  and the mood of a minority spread to the shores of the UK. Breaching lockdown rules, the BLM against the Government stipulation; in controlling the seriousness of the Virus and it causes, the BLM gathered, this led to riots in the streets of Capital London, looting and the toppling of statues and via the new movements that joined and took over, with another movements along the way, what was seen as a negative and destructive agenda forced it's path.  The 'Cancel' and 'Woke' culture was born and the destruction and defacing of property continued.
Meanwhile the Governments, at least in the USA and partly the UK at this point in time, that were seen on the backfoot and appeasing those on the left have snapped out of what was seen as a paralysis or any signs of counter action to this problem and are now slowly starting to act  getting  back some form of Law, Order and Justice reiterating  sorts of. While doing so, they have found or identified that there are some in the Civil Service, infiltrated by those being members of the left and therefore were seen to be appeasing this disorder if not encouraging it. The question was down to 'should there be bias in the Civil Service? The answer should be NO! The same for the Media presenting News that people rely on.  For the UK at least, the government are now purging the Civil Service and other departments and organisations to try and bring some form of normality back into society... This is like climbing a mountain as each day other areas have been found wanting and also require investigation.

The poem, after all that; is another view or perspective of the author and writer trying to make sense of it all, like most of us.
